Hobgoblin11 Posted December 19, 2006 Share Posted December 19, 2006 Has anyone ever met someone on Tip.It that they now in real life but never realised who they were? Example: I got a PM from someone tonight, saying to the effect of 'Hey, I was reading your profile on the TET page and I'm from Nottingham too' I was intrigued obviously, and gradually it turned out that we actually live about 300 metres from each other, go to the same school as each other and study some of the same subjects! I mean, what are the chances of that!? Has anyone else had PM's from people saying that they live in the same town/city as you and were wondering if they knew you? 99/99 Fletching, 99/99 Cooking, 96/99 Strength Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uula Posted December 20, 2006 Share Posted December 20, 2006 I met a girl on rs that lives 200 meters away from me, and she knows a girl in my brothers class. I didn't know her before it though No one from TIF though, probably cos my location is lying Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phil Posted December 20, 2006 Share Posted December 20, 2006 A few years ago me and Ex1le watched the same football match in the same pub, but we didn't realise this till later. We must have been at most a few metres apart. Scary stuff like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rushrock Posted December 20, 2006 Share Posted December 20, 2006 If anyone PMed me saying they lived in my area, I'd be freaked out...(I'd think they were a stalker or a child molester. :XD:) That's why I don't give away my location to people on the internet. : Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MyPurpleCrayon Posted December 20, 2006 Share Posted December 20, 2006 Um.. me and Brett know each other. And me and Panda live in the same city. Ghost: I am prejudice towards ignorance, so that would explain why I appear to be so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fadfdfd Posted December 20, 2006 Share Posted December 20, 2006 I've wondered about this :P I talk to Runescapeloser22 about it all the time! What if we went to a Red Sox game, sat next to each other, and didn't know it. What if you were grocery shopping and suddenly, Panda walks by you and you never know it.

kelem_ryu Posted December 20, 2006 Share Posted December 20, 2006 I can count the people i meet on RS, who even speak the same language as i do on the fingers of one hand. Haven't found a Tip.iter who even speaks german yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deloriagod Posted December 20, 2006 Share Posted December 20, 2006 I think GSW lives about 45 minutes from me. That's the only person that I can remember who lives somewhat near me that I've met on here. That's why I don't give away my location to people on the internet. I used to be that way too. Over the past year I got over that fear of being stalked and stuff and now I easily give up my location. If someone wants to kidnap me they're gonna have to work pretty damn hard. I don't go easily ;) Internet Marketing For Newbies Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueLancer Posted December 20, 2006 Share Posted December 20, 2006 If someone wants to kidnap me they're gonna have to work pretty damn hard. I don't go easily ;) From a "standard safety" viewpoint, it's probably true that you shouldn't give your location to any 'stranger' online, but people should also think about what you just said. I mean.. Does somebody have enough motivation and money to hire 3 armed hitmen to abduct you in the middle of the night when you're just a normal person age 16-20 (not sure how old you are, that's just a guess) and have no special information or knowledge And if suspicious people would approach you online and obviously just try to find out where you live, you could always mislead them to an empty storage building :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm actually 16 years old. If anybody has enough motivation to actually come after me, all the more to them. I don't have anything special that someone might want. I'm just an average teenager. If someone has the money to hire 3 armed men to try to kidnap, that's pretty awesome. Though I do sleep 5 feet from 3 swords and 2 razor sharp knives so they'd better be quite :P If I was a girl I'd be more fearful of giving out my location but I'm a guy and so that gets rid of a lot of people who would want to kidnap/rape me.

speedofsound Posted December 20, 2006 Share Posted December 20, 2006 I've wondered about this :P I talk to Runescapeloser22 about it all the time! What if we went to a Red Sox game, sat next to each other, and didn't know it. What if you were grocery shopping and suddenly, Panda walks by you and you never know it. That could be the same with you and I. I actually go down to Boston quit often, and are very fond of seeing the Red Sox....who knows... Imagine..... *I sit down in my seat next to some kid...he looks at me....* "SPEEDOFSOUND....*me confused, looks over*.....FADFDFD! *drools* Omfgzorz!" You can't ever find a place that's nice and peaceful, because there isn't any. You may think there is, but once you get there, when you're not looking, somebody'll sneak up and write "(bleep) you" right under your nose. Try it sometime. I think, even, if I ever die, and they stick me in a cemetery, and I have a tombstone and all, it'll say "Holden Caulfield" on it, and then what year I was born and what year I died, and then right under that it'll say "(bleep) you."

Google90 Posted December 20, 2006 Share Posted December 20, 2006 I've seen plenty people from Boston, from the "lets get a player from each state" post. What school do you guys go to? I just wanna see in general how close we are.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
